An Amazing Film

Rating: 10/10 (10 July 2005)

Going in to see this film I was not expecting too much considering that it was made by MIchael Bay, but was wrong. The story is so original and engrossing that it is hard to look away. Not since Gatica has such a futuristic melancholy film arrived that has a great story and balance as to drama and action. Apart from the great story the cinematography was amazing and the acting was great. Scarlet Johannsen and Ewan McGregor both gave very good performance balancing the naiveness that was required for their characters. I found this film not only to be such a great story, but also as an entertaining action film at the same time. The good thing is is that Bay found a healthy medium between drama and action to make one of my favorite films of the year. As far as entertainment goes, this film is a 10 and the drama as well. Well worth the money and worth multiple views.
